I'm surprised...I know 350z hr's put down around 300 with full bolt ons...seems like it would just be worth it to go fi from the start and not waste any time with na bolt ons...I've actually talked to some 5.0 owners that put down 430+ with full bolt ons

Yep, most of the 5.0 guys I know are around 430-440 with full bolt ons. I know a couple FI guys making some nice numbers... anywhere from 550-650.

If you want power with the 370, yes, it's worth it just to go FI right off the bat.

Sounds like the only draw back to the 370 imo...unless of course someone wants to trade me a tt

TTs pop up for sale here every so often.

FuszNissan · 04-24-2012, 12:40 PM

TT's

jay4500 · 04-24-2012, 12:45 PM

mustangs look so boring , all the 370z needs is a good roots supercharger, Im just not a big fan of all those after market piping that the Stillen supercharger comes with .

Lethal302 · 04-25-2012, 07:14 PM

Actually had a 370 pull up next to me on the highway today at about 60mph and started reving...Dropped into 3rd and we both gunned it and I pulled really hard...Now I'm second guessing my trade consideration I thought it would be a little closer than it was

**No cars in sight and felt like a decently safe time to run with the Z

Mikes350z · 04-25-2012, 07:26 PM

No the 5.0 and V8 Camaro will basically kill us in a straight line, we are about looks and speed, just not killer speed.

run up on a single/twin turbo Z and it would be a little more exciting

i'm staying away from a lot of the common bolt-ons and just going FI asap!

Yeah I'd like to find one just to see how it would go. It was cool though I slowed up and we both gave each other a thumbs up. Had an srt4 pull up next to me on the highway last week too and it kept hissing its BOV at me. The 370 would have killed that it was pretty slow.

If I got a 370 I think I'd need it to be TT. I love the looks of the Z and the way it drives but its alot of fun to have the power on tap that the 5.0 has

I thought you were trying to trade for a c5 or c6?

I tried that but didn't get too much interest. I've always loved corvettes.
